A Community of Expert Alumni Investing in Startups
An online community of successful alumni combining their expertise to make angel investments in highly differentiated startups.
Connect, Collaborate, and Invest
We connect US-based alumni and friends of international universities with startups from those institutions to provide funding and mentorship as they seek to establish and grow their businesses in the USA.
Our experienced alumni collaborate on investment selection, due diligence, and startup support, leveraging their combined experience in pursuit of higher success rates, shorter times to exit, and larger returns.
University startups are built to commercialize groundbreaking research with the potential for meaningful, large-scale impact. Contributing our capital, commercial skills, domain expertise, market knowledge, and local contacts helps them to grow their businesses—especially in the USA—and achieve success, faster.
Ready to invest your time, money, and expertise in helping these exciting companies thrive?
Who is this for?
Angel Investors
Successful alumni and friends of international universities seeking outsized returns through collaborative diligence, investment, and mentoring.
Experienced Mentors
Tenured professionals and subject matter experts looking to support entrepreneurs and startups as advisors and fractional team members.
University Startups
Early-stage businesses being built around high-impact solutions developed within the university research environment, seeking pre-seed or seed round funding.
Online Community
Our not-so-secret sauce is a 24x7 members-only community of experts, designed for real-time and asynchronous interaction, including:
Member directory with searchable tags to match interests, experience, and skills.
Active community facilitation to help foster discussions and forge valuable relationships.
Direct access to featured startup teams, pitch decks, and due diligence materials.
Livestreamed events featuring startup founders and angel investors.
Portfolio company updates.
Match-ups between startups and experts for mentoring and advisory relationships.
Syndicated Investments
Each startup opportunity will attract a unique group of members who are ready to invest.
Pooling their capital means individual angels do not have to meet minimum check size requirements, allowing them to build a portfolio of smaller investments.
Angels with relevant expertise assist in opportunity selection, due diligence, and deal negotiation.
Individual members decide whether to invest, how much, and how often.
Angelumni uses an established investment platform to handle most of the paperwork, minimizing investor burden.
Members contribute advice, expertise, and introductions to help our portfolio companies succeed.
Participating investors share in the upside whenever an investment is successfully monetized.
Angelumni will donate a share of its profits to the institutions from which successful ventures originate, helping to support future entrepreneurs.

Our pipeline of highly-investible startups will hopefully begin with ventures from two world-class institutions: Imperial College (London) and McGill University (Montreal).
We expect to feature opportunities from other top-flight colleges later in the year.
